Sam still wants England job

SAM ALLARDYCE has not given up on his dream of one day managing England.

A high-ranking FA official made it clear on Sunday that Fabio Capello’s successor would be homegrown and Allardyce has been mentioned as one of the front runners to take over.

The Blackburn Rovers boss was in Cork yesterday for the launch of former Cork Hibernians striker Carl Davenport’s autobiography, The Dav – Anecdotes and Stories from Inside and Outside the Box.
